Guide to Copyright & Permission for Using Music/Scripts Online

(permission is still granted, December 2023)

---

Parody Music

We can confirm that permission is granted for you to use One Way UK and One Way Squared Parody Music as part of your online services or team performances. The tracks may not be uploaded with no puppetry or creative arts performance with them, for example, uploading the full track with a static image or uploading tracks on bulk from multiple albums. There are a couple of things that are important to note...

Firstly… There needs to be attribution wording in videos
This is really important, your video must feature the following wording (depending on which album the music came from). Either on screen at the start or end of the music or in a clear and obvious place in the description.

Secondly… There must be no financial gain to the videos
This is obviously unlikely, as churches are providing exceptional resources for free to make them as widely available as possible. But you cannot charge to view the video or make them available as part of a subscription, they must be freely available for anyone.

Books and Scripts

For books, the rules are very similar to those for parody music. We can confirm that permission is granted for you to use One Way UK scripts/books as part of your online services or team performances. The scripts (text or audio) may not be uploaded with no puppetry or creative arts performance with them, for example, uploading the full recording with a static image or uploading scripts/recordings on bulk from multiple books. But there are a couple of things that are important to note:

Firstly… There needs to be attribution wording in videos
This is really important, your video must feature the following wording (depending on the publisher). Either on screen at the start or end of the script/story or in a clear and obvious place in the description.

Secondly… There must be no financial gain to the videos
You cannot charge to view the video or make them available as part of a subscription, they must be freely available for anyone.

For books from another publisher, you will need to contact them direct to confirm you have permission to use their material. Their contact details will be in the front of the book on the publishing information page.
